So many things on my Happy List this week.

Last week my mom asked if they could come over the hill and spend the night. I love whenever my folks come to visit. They are in Arkansas visiting my sister Meg for a month and I miss them already, even though it has only been a few days since they were here.

Big Daddy and I spent a good few hours planning The MiMyMa Summer Retreat that is coming up VERY soon. See my little countdown ticker over on my sidebar? Squeeee!!!!

I LOVE these girls and I cannot wait to be just chillin' with them, but we do have a few little day trips planned for the kiddos....

Here is a first draft itinerary...with room to add according to our mood.

Mon 6/20 MiMi , Myya and Kids arrive HAPPY Dance!!!

Tue 6/21 Swim, BBQ, hang out around the house

Wed 6/22 Micke Grove Zoo

Thurs 6/23 Hilmar Cheese Factory, Waterpark

Fri 6/24 something awesome, yet to be determined

Sat 6/25 Hollister

Sun 6/26 Monterey, Wharf, Cannery Row, Dennis the Menace Park, Beach

Mon 6/27 Gilroy Gardens Amusement Park

Tue 6/28 Swim, Fruit Barn, $1 Scoop night at Baskin & Robbins

Wed 6/29 something awesome, yet to be determined

Thur 6/30 Jelly Belly Factory, say goodbye…until next Summer!

I know...fun right? I seriously CANNOT wait! HAPPY!!!

Big Daddy and I went on a date this week too. HAPPY!!!

We went and saw Bridesmaids...

Such a funny Movie..seriously, I need to go see it again because the theater was packed and so I am sure I missed something over the loud laughter (mine). HAPPY!!!

I know I have talked about how hard the adjustment has been with Big Daddy's new job and hours.

But let me make it perfectly clear...

I am so thankful and HAPPY that he has such a good job.

That his job is secure and that he gets paid well enough to support our family and provide us with stellar medical and dental insurance, all HAPPY blessings.

So, instead of complaining about how hard this is for me I will try REALLY hard to focus on the HAPPY fact that he is employed and REALLY loves his job.

This weekend we are going to a friend's warehouse to look at some furniture she is getting rid of.

She has been staging model homes for a few years and is getting rid of a bunch of stuff so she can rent a smaller warehouse.

She has offered to let us pick out some stuff from her "FREE" section. HAPPY!!!

I am more than a little excited, because barely used furniture and it's within my price range...lol.

Free is my favorite number...HAPPY!!!

Crazymamaof6 said...

Whoohoo. For free new to you furniture!
Yeehaw on your super fun plans.
Hallelujah on medical and dental and jobs for the hubs.

Yay on your mama visiting at your house.

Crazymamaof6 said...

Ummm I tried 3 times to see Bridesmaids last weekend. Finally made it there last night and I thought it was hi-freaking-larious! The hubs however hates it when people continue to embarrass themselves and bailed. He couldn't hack it. So I sat there alone. I may as well have just gone by myself.

Sigh. Next time I will and just go during the day. Instead of waiting for the weekend.

The Kooky Queen--Rachel said...

WOW, that is super busy! And thanks for the movie recommendation! I'll add it to my list. :)

Mandy said...

Bex said...

Your retreat plans look fantastic! That would make me happy too!

Also, free, barely used furniture? That's awesome!

LOL!
The furniture warehouse sounds AMAZING!!! How awesome. Let me know if you get something!! I love furniture. I know, that's weird.

Andrea (ace1028) said...

What a wonderful list! I SO wanna see Bridesmaids, it looks hilarious. :)

I'm trying to write my own list right now. We'll see how I do and I'll link up if I get it right!

Beth said...

Yay free! I can't wait to see what awesome loot you got! :)

Beth E. said...

I've been wanting to see that movie...doubt that my hubby would go, but I can take one of my friends along. :-)

Gotta love free furniture...I hope you find exactly what you want in that "free" section!

Jen said...

My husband just changed jobs. The hours are a little longer, so we need some adjusting...but he loves it, and is a much happier man!! woohoo!!Congratulations on the new job!

Bridget said...

Sweet happy list! Looks like your MiMyMa retreat is going to be lots of fun.

So neat that you're getting to look through your friend's warehouse, and hope you find some amazing things. (pick out a dresser for me mkay??)

Laurie said...

I guess I'm going to have to go see Bridesmaids. Everyone is raving about it! Ha!

Linda said...

My daughter went to bridesmade. I think I will wait for it to come to netflix. LOL

Stacie said...

Detail-oriented planners are my favorite kind of people. Looks like you hae a tomn of fun planned!

And free is my favorite 4 letter word!

Myya said...

Mimi is such a dork getting jealous... silly girl. LOL.

I am soooo super excited, i mean seriously we are going to have THE BESTEST TIME!!! Double Squeeee.

I went & saw Bridesmaids with my sisters last night. OMG I was laughing so hard! I don't usually really laugh out loud at movies, but man oh man did I LAUGH OUT LOUD... A LOT!!!

Big Daddy's job is change & with any change there is adjustment so you have the right to be bummed about things if ya want.

26 days... HOLLA!!!

Emmy said...

Oh soo jealous about the furniture thing. How awesome is that. And yes, I too at times hate the hours Eric has to work with his job-but I don't know if I would really want to give up the life style I live for a lesser job.

M. said...

sooooooo new hours take a ton of adjustment for suresies.

i will say i LOVE LOVE LOVE free things and i LOVE LOVE LOVE free things that i need slash want as opposed to just beign given something. but ill accept either or :]

love positive happy lists...it helps to kick the negative nancies away! keep it up lady!
